We also allow Members to create their own photo albums in which to upload pictures. All Member-created albums will show in The Journey Members' Photo Gallery unless the album is marked as private. This feature is particularly nice, as pictures may receive comments from other Members. Creating an album and uploading pictures may be accomplished by the following steps:

Creating A Photo Album & Uploading Pictures To It.

1. On either the Photo Gallery or Albums page click the Add Albums link.
2. Entitle your album with a short description.
   (Make your album public for best results.)
3. On the next page - Click the "Click here to upload pictures!" Link
4. The next page -- entitled Upload Pictures -- will present you with a form field in which you may upload pictures. You may only upload up to 3 pictures at a time, with an unlimited about of pictures per album.

Adding pictures that you have already upload to a Journey Photo Album is now made simple as pie. After creating your photo album and adding pictures as listed in the steps above, you now have the option to easily add your images into your posts & threads at the click of a few buttons.
